Im 24 and I'm a IT consultant (application developer) which means I sit down 8 hours a day. I'm engaged to a wonderful woman, who also used to be overweight but lost it before I met her (i couldnt believe the change when I saw her pictures)
Im also pre-diabetic as of December 2011 and I am terrified of being diabetic. my mom and sister have eyesight problems from it and my cousin died of it in 2009. So I am extremely scared
Ive taken up boxing and mixed martial arts in an effort to get active. I also weightlift. Ive been yo-yo weightlost since August 2010. That month I lost alot of weight then put it back on. Then in Sept 2011 I lost, but stopped in Nov and gain alot back. Now Im at it again with some activities I enjoy so that I will keep up with my exercise. My gym mates are great (all men, im the only girl) and they are so encouraging and I love it.
Lets hope I can lose this.
